GETTING STARTED Make sure that the vehicle compatibility is correct: The Gateway Pro BT is available in specific versions for different vehicle types, therefore the exact operation and installation may differ in each case. Before you start Make sure the ignition key is removed from the car, the radio is switched off and you have the security code of the head unit (radio) ready (if applicable). Please note: In case of Peugeot it is necessary to remove the factory USB option completely from the car system. Please make sure that all of the connectors of the CD changer are disconnected. Removing the head unit First, carefully remove your vehicle s existing factory head unit as per the factory instructions and by using the correct tools. In some cases removing the head unit will require panel removal. Contact your vehicle s dealer or installation supplier / installer for more information.. 2 3
4. FITTING THE GATEWAY HARNESS Once the head unit is removed, disconnect the antenna cable (1), and then unclip the main wiring connector from the head unit (2). With the main radio cable removed, connect the Dension supplied cable between the original factory cable harness and the head unit. ipod Dock cable or cradle or DAB+G connector Connector port (optional) USB device Connector port (optional accessory) Microphone The Connector port allows easier access to the USB and AUX connections of the Gateway, and provides a bypass switch and an easy reset option. The ipod connection and charging is possible directly through the ipod dock cable or an ipod cradle (not included). Please fix the Connector port in a position where the user can access the inputs, and leave sufficient room for attaching USB storage devices. 5. INSTALLATION (PART 1) The below diagram depicts how the different modules connect to the Gateway Pro BT. Connect the 18 way Micro-Fit to the car side of the Gateway Pro BT module. Connect the round ipod connector (optional) and Connector port (optional) to the module and feed them through the dashboard to an appropriate location. 6. INSTALLATION (PART 2) There are DIP switches on the bottom of the Gateway Pro BT. You can activate / deactivate the hands free functionality with DIP switch 5. Change the default settings only if you want to use the factory fitted phone options. For example: If you want to use the factory phone option instead of the Pro BT, set DIP switch 5 ON and change the 4-pin molex (phone audio) position as it can be seen below (as it can be seen on the picture next page). The other DIP switches between 1-4 are non-functional. 4 5
Please do not mount the module near heat or damp surfaces. Refit is the reversal of the removal process for your specific vehicle, as per your manufacturer s instructions. Please note: You have to remove the factory phone module (if available) to be able to access to the Gateway s phone option. Fitting the microphone The microphone works best when it is kept away from all noise sources (open windows or speakers) but is located close to the driver: installing it at the central interior light or the rear view mirror, so to the centre of the windscreen are two options that can produce high sound quality. There is also a clip to help you mount the microphone. The optimal place for the mic depends on several things, so it is recommended to try different places before finalizing the installation. 7. TESTING AND REFITTING Before you refit the head unit, test the Gateway Pro BT with your car audio. Make sure all connections are correct and that you have full functionality. Please note: If during testing you notice any changes or inconsistencies in the way the car s electrical system operates, disconnect the Gateway product immediately and consult your dealer. When you are done testing everything, refit your head unit. Do not trap the cables or leave them in a position where they may become trapped after refitting the head unit. We supply cable ties to mount the Gateway Pro BT module. 8. ENABLING In case of Peugeot enabling certain head unit options is necessary. This enabling process is done by the Gateway device, the first time it connects to the car. If you experience that you cannot reach the new sources on the display, then please turn the 4th DIP switch of the Gateway ON and start the car. The moment you started the car, an Initialization is in progress message should appear on the car display. 9.

When switching off the radio the playback will stop and the source device will go on standby. You can pair the Gateway Pro BT with a Bluetooth capable mobile phone for music streaming (requires an A2DP capable phone) or hands free (if that option is active in the Gateway). Pairing is controlled from the mobile phone, the same way as connecting to other Bluetooth accessories. The pin code to the Gateway Pro BT is 0000. 6 7
